"Evidence...... Of course I did, but I didn't bring it with me. Mu Fan said softly, "But Aunt Zhixi can help me testify." ”

"But my mother said that she was dead in the eyes of others, and I was not born in their hearts at all." Xia Yan sneered, "If I don't want to, this marriage contract won't be counted." What's more, at the age of fourteen, you didn't even grow well, and you want me to marry, I think you want to harm me. ”

Hearing this, Mu Fan was stunned, it is normal for a woman to marry at the age of fourteen in China, how could she become that she wanted to harm her?

But instead of struggling with this question, he sighed and said, "Why, don't you like me?" ”

"Why should I like you? Is it because you have a good-looking face? Xia Yan stared at Mu Fan's face, and suddenly her face was full of redness, "Ahem, I can't deny it, you are indeed very good-looking, but I, Xia Yan, am not the kind of person who only looks at appearance." I've always wondered if you say I'm your fiancée all day long, is it because of our engagement or because you really like me, or because I'm my mother's child? ”

"I like you." Mu Fan did not hesitate at all, and immediately replied.

This crisp and neat answer made Xia Yan stunned, she originally thought that Mu Fan would think about it carefully, but she didn't expect that she didn't even hesitate at all.

For some reason, when she heard this answer, her heart suddenly accelerated, and it seemed as if it was about to jump out, making it difficult for her to control.

But she knew that now was not the time to be excited, and she didn't want Mu Fan to mistake other feelings for her liking, so she endured the panic in her heart and asked, "Why?" ”

Yes, why, Mu Fan sighed.

Maybe it's because I've been in the palace for many years and there are few people who really care about me, so I was moved by her thoughtfulness when I first met her, or maybe it's because the food she cooked was so delicious, or as she said, because she was Aunt Zhixi's child, so she felt that she was special.

But none of this seems to be the answer, and he doesn't know why.

He only knew that no matter what time it was, Xia Yan was the first in his heart.

Her every smile and smile are firmly remembered by herself, and her every move is always followed by herself, even like a madman, even what she eats every day, she wants to know.

If he can't see her one day, his heart will be like something is missing, and he will lose his soul.

"Why?" Mu Fan lowered his head, "I don't know either." ”

"I guessed correctly." Xia Yan smiled, "You must have the illusion that you like me." ”

"Delusion?"

"Yes, that's right, I guess you must have mistaken our friendship for liking because you stayed with me all day and couldn't meet other girls." Xia Yan nodded firmly.

"Friendship?"

"That's right, we're good friends, good friends like a family."

"Friend...... Hehe. Mu Fan smiled self-deprecatingly, and didn't say anything more to Xia Yan, just walked straight to the room next to the room he had just chosen, and closed the door silently.

What's going on?

Xia Yan was stunned, does this mean that he wants to live here?

But he hasn't gotten his consent yet, so why doesn't he understand the rules at all?

I really don't think of myself as an outsider.

Xia Yan muttered in her heart for a long time, wanting to step forward and drive him away, but there was always a voice in her heart that hindered her, so that she could not make up her mind.

"Hey, forget it, you can live if you want to, anyway, no one lives in this house, and it's a waste to keep it empty." Xia Yan comforted himself while pouting at Mu Fan's door, "Stay, stay, I have the right to live without you." ”

Although Mu Fan lived on Sweet Island, he hadn't said a word to Xia Yan in the past few days, and Xia Yan was also happy to be idle, and he didn't have the slightest intention of taking the initiative to take care of him.

Ten days passed when the two ignored each other, Xiao Hei still didn't come back from home, and no one came with any news, so Xia Yan was a little worried.

"Eldest sister, what's wrong with you today, why are you absent-minded." Xiaohu watched Xia Yan make a mistake with the things ordered by the guest for the fifth time, and he couldn't stand it, so he couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay, it's okay." Xia Yan said with a smile.

"How can it be okay?" Xiaohu pointed to the tray in Xia Yan's hand, "That guest asked for melon-flavored shaved ice, and the eldest sister served almond tofu." ”

"Huh." Xia Yan smiled awkwardly, "Mistake, mistake." ”

"It's the fifth time, how can it still be a mistake?" Xiaohu sighed and took the tray in Xia Yan's hand, "If you are in a cold war with Brother Mu, then hurry up and reconcile with him, I have seen that the two of you are quite abnormal these days, and I am really a little anxious." ”

"Who's saying it's because of him?" Xia Yan pursed his lips, "He eats and sleeps well here, he doesn't have to do any work, what do I have to worry about?" ”

"Did he really eat well and sleep well?" Xiaohu muttered in a low voice, but he didn't dare to let Xia Yan hear it.

"What did you say?"

"I said that since it's not because of Brother Mu, then what?" Xiaohu hurriedly hid the panic on his face.

"Xiao Hei has been home for ten days, and there is no letter at all, and I am worried about it." I'm afraid that Xiaohu will misunderstand something, Xia Yan explained.

Xiaohu knew the reason, and immediately laughed: "What should I be for, it turns out that it is because of Xiao Hei." In that case, you can just go home. Eldest sister, you haven't been home for almost a month, and Aunt Yan should be worried about you, so take this opportunity to go home and have a look. ”

"You think I don't want to go back?" Xia Yan sighed, "If I leave, what should I do with so many guests?" ”

"There's me." Xiaohu patted his chest, "You have already taught me how to use the freezer, and the materials for making almond tofu have been prepared, and I also know the method, I can do it when you are not there." ”

"You?" Xia Yan looked at Xiaohu, "Why don't I think it's so reliable?" ”

"Big sister, I'm your right-hand man." Xiaohu pursed his lips aggrievedly, "If you don't even believe me, who else can you trust?" ”

"But ......"

"Don't do it, I promise you, there will be no mistakes, you can go home with confidence." Xiaohu's expression was serious, not at all like he was joking.

Looking at Xiaohu's serious appearance, Xia Yan couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to nod and agree.

Seriously, she didn't go home for nearly a month, she was really homesick, and it was the first time she had been away from home for so long in a few years.

Since she decided to go home, Xia Yan arranged all the affairs in the shop, but when she was about to leave, she found a very important problem.

Xiao Hei is not here, is she going to walk back?

She looked at the sky outside, it was almost dusk at this time, and at this time she couldn't even find a carriage willing to go to Bianxi Village, after all, it would be dark when she was sent to the sky, and if it was dark and then rushed back from Bianxi Village, I was afraid that no one would want to.

What can I do?

Xia Yan lowered his head and thought for a long time, and finally came up with a solution.

"Knock knock." There was a knock on Mu Fan's door.

"Whoever?"

"Mu Fan, it's me." Xia Yan's voice came slowly, "I have something to discuss with you." ”

Hearing Xia Yan's voice, Mu Fan twisted his brows, but did not answer.

"Your Highness, Miss Xia Yan is calling you." After a few days of cold war, I couldn't even stand No. 1.

He didn't know why, Mu Fan hadn't said a word in the past ten days, he hadn't even eaten much, and he didn't seem to be in a bad mood at all, which made No. 1 anxious.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he also wanted the two to reconcile quickly, otherwise it would be difficult for them to be subordinates, didn't you see that His Highness hadn't even given them a good face in the past few days?

"Yes." Mu Fan put down the book in his hand and sighed, "Go open the door." ”

With the master's consent, Number One hurriedly opened the door.

"Brother Liu, what about Mu Fan? I'm looking for him. Xia Yan saw that it was not Mu Fan but No. 1 who opened the door, and immediately said politely.

"Miss Yan'er, the young master is in the house." No. 1 got out of the way and invited Xia Yan into the house.

Xia Yan glanced around, found where Mu Fan was, hurriedly walked to his side, and said with a smile: "Mu Fan, have you eaten?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, get down to business." Mu Fan said with a cold face.

"Ahem." Xia Yan coughed embarrassedly, "What, I want to go home, but I can't find a carriage willing to send me back at this hour, can you borrow it for me?" ”

"What do you say?" Mu Fan sneered, "You haven't said a word to me for ten days, but now you want to borrow my carriage?" ”

"Who the hell doesn't talk to whom?" Xia Yan lowered his head, pursed his lips dissatisfiedly, and muttered in a low voice.

"Couldn't you buy another horse without Blackie?"

"You're rich, I can't compare with you." Xia Yan secretly glanced at him, "Just this time, I have to buy a horse, isn't it a waste?" With that spare money, how good it is to save. ”

For Xia Yan who earned so much silver, but still saved up the silver with food and clothing, Mu Fan still can't figure out why.

He guessed that it might be because he was used to living a poor life, so he was reluctant to spend money.

Whenever he thought of this, he would feel an inexplicable distress.

"I ......"

Just when Mu Fan was about to agree, he heard Xia Yan say again: "Besides, even if I buy a horse, I can't ride it, I can only ride a donkey." If I buy a donkey and go back, Hei will be unhappy. I don't even know how to get back to your carriage. ”

Hearing her say this, Mu Fan swallowed back the words he was about to say, turned his head sideways to No. 1 and said, "Liu Yi, send her home." ”

"Huh?" No. 1 was stunned, he was His Highness's guard, not a coachman!

But now that the order had been given, he had to obey.

"Mu Fan, you're so nice." Hearing Mu Fan's promise, Xia Yan was overjoyed, and took his hand excitedly, "Thank you, I won't say it, just understand." ”

Thank you, that's what outsiders say, Mu Fan, who has long regarded Xia Yan as his daughter-in-law, didn't want to hear the word "thank you" from her mouth at all, seeing her so good at this time, most of the anger in her stomach in the past few days has disappeared.

When there was just a hint of a smile on his face, Xia Yan's voice sounded again: "You have lived in my shop for so long, this carriage will be paid to your rent." ”

After speaking, Xia Yan led No. 1 and jumped out.

Looking at her back as she left, Mu Fan's face became even more gloomy.
